I happened to see a very similiar problem a few weeks ago.  Try the
following:

- Highlight the Calendar folder in Outlook
- Select View/Current View/Customize Current View
- Click the Fields button in the View Summary window

In the case I saw, the Start and End fields were both set to "Created".
When I reset them to "Start" and "End", the appointments started showing
up
in the right place.

Hope this helps,
Greg

Subject: Wrong appointment date and time


Hello,

Windows NT 4.0 SP 6.0a / Exchange Server 5.5 / Outlook 2000 SP1.

When one of our users creates an appointment by double clicking on a
future
day in the calendar, the new appointment opens with the current date and
time instead of the date and time of the future day.
I already made a new Outlook profile, replaced the Outllib.dll, did a
Detect
& Repair, started Outlook with the parameter /CleanReminders because
this
solves many problems of this kind and searched TechNet and other sources
but
couldn't find a solution.
I suppose this is still a client problem, has someone encountered this
problem yet ?

Thanks,

Probably a corrupt calendar entry.  You might try viewing it with OWA and
possibly cleaning it out.

Hey Darcy - I'm guessing you've already seen this by now but just wanted
to make sure.  The RTM evaluation version of Exchange Server 2003 hit
the web site Monday afternoon. Originally we were shooting for mid-July
but they got it pushed out there right after RTM.  So it can be
downloaded from here -
http://www.microsoft.com/exchange/evaluation/trial/2003.asp 

Hopefully this will help with your plans as you can start doing your lab
testing ASAP and of course you can upgrade from the eval. media to full
media when the Select CD's are released. 

Thanks,
Chris

RE: Good Anti Spam Software

[Blunt, James H (Jim)]

Go to Exchange 2003 instead of 2000...it's got some spam filtering and
content filtering built into the product.

Add a Linux mail relayer in front of your Exchange box in the DMZ and you'll
be good to go.

I kill all traffic from Brazil (200.x.x.x).  You might try that, unless

Thanks.

The server is all patched up and latest SP is on.

this morning it took 10 minutes for the server to croak.

IIS log was full of PROPFIND requests. They were weird too, because they
came from the server's own IP address, however the logged on user was a
user that belongs to a customer in Brazil. I was expecting to see the IP
address from Brazil.

Here is a [modified] example:

2003-07-02 11:59:37 [my.server.ip.address] [EMAIL PROTECTED]
W3SVC1 SHFEX02 [my.server.ip.address] 80 PROPFIND /public/ - 500
HTTP/1.1 exchange.hosting.innerhost.com
Exchange-Server-Frontend-Proxy/6.0+Mozilla/4.0+(compatible;+MSIE+5.5;+Wi
ndows+95)


There were A LOT of these in the log. Mixed up with a few records from
the "good" customer logons.

I ended up configuring the Default Web Site to deny connections from the
server's own IP address.  Hopefully this will help.

Does sound like a DOS attack of some sort (had similar problems with
some
standard IIS servers).  If the logs arent too revealing, get your comms
guys
to enable incoming logging on the firewalls / firewall routers for
traffic
destined for your front-end server.  Should be easy for them to do.

As for blocking the traffic they can do that fairly easily as well,
provided
its all from the same / similar places (ours was).  The problem with
trying
to block it at the front end server is that by then the box has already
seen
the traffic and may be too late to stop it.

Also (as always) make sure you are running the correct suite of patches
on
your front-end server.

Subject: something is killing IIS on one of my front-ends


Recently, I have had problems with one of my front-end Exchange 2000
servers. It looks like IIS gets bogged down with something. Eventually
IIS
stops responding and resets itself.

Earlier this morning, I was just looking at a few things and noticed
that
all of a sudden IIS got 17,000+ connections at a rate of ~50 per second.

I am going to check the logs and try to find out where these connections
came from. Hopefully they are all from one place so that I could block
that
source IP address.

And I am fishing for suggestions as to what else I could do to track
this
down.

Thanks

   Hello All,

 I am looking into purchasing Spam Filtering for our Exchange
Server. We are currently Exchange 5.5 and will be moving to 2000 within
the year. So I would like a solution that will work for both versions.
Any good recommendations?  Thank you in advance !!!

RE: Virtual Memory error

[Ben Winzenz]

Ken, have you looked at other articles?  Look at:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;328882

It clearly states that the only reason that you don't use the /3gb
switch on Standard is because you end up losing a GB of allocatable
virtual memory.  I have never seen a problem running Exchange 2000 on
W2K Standard with more than 1gb of RAM.  In fact, we had to upgrade ours
from 1GB to 1.5GB - it is running even better now that we put more
memory in it. 

Brian,

Do not use the /3gb switch on W2K standard.  Read the bottom part of
that article for suggestions on what you might be able to do to help in
your situation.

run it on win2k advance and use the "/3GB" switch.

Re: Exchange 2000 invalid characters

You can have the alias a different name.

But I was able to rename a distribution group with a + sign and can email it
internally.

So, it is possible.  Just not proper form.

my fault, it's also just in the display name, not in smtp or anything else.
so I'm guessing that should be ok since it's just a display name.

Exchange monitoring from HP Openview ITO

[Greg S]

Good Afternoon

We monitor Exchange 5.5 and 2000 servers for several clients using HP ITO
agents installed locally on the server.   We are using HP ITO v6 w/ an HP/UX
back end.   It has the ability monitor services, application logs, perfmon
counters, etc - its quite capable, but alot to deploy.

We are running the exchange spi's that come with ITO.   However this doesn't
quite cover enough.

We had a 5.5 server die over the weekend - the root cause was disk
corruption on a RAID set (still not sure exactly how it happened, no disk
actually failed, just started eating data)   Anyway the first signs of
failure were sunday morning in the wee hours during a daily backup it
started spitting up ESE97 errors stating database corruption, restore from a
known good backup, etc.   Our ITO monitor did not pick up the problem until
several hours later when the IS service finally died.   We lost the whole
server after a few hours of attempting to repair, restore (we'll talk about
why not to use dell server hardware in a different thread).

Anyway, what I'm looking for here is a list of events that could be logged
into the Application log that we should set up monitors for in ITO.  So far
the only thing I can come up with is anything from Source:  ESE97 that is
type Error.Will this only generate real problem alerts or will it
generate noise?   Also is there any other specific events I should be
looking for?

Also, Is there any suggestions for doing the same for Exchange 2000?  2 of
our monitored customers are running 2000, 3 are running 5.5.

Any help from anyone who's done Exchange system monitoring from HP ITO
(either Windows or Unix back ends) would be greatly appreciated.   The smart
plugins for ITO6 and OVOW 7 are real nice, but don't have alot useful in the
way of event log monitors

Thanks in advance.

Auto Sending to the internet

[Jeffrey G. Witt]

What are the views on automatically sending e-mail to the internet. I
have been asked to set up a method so that when an employee gets
terminated we forward their e-mail to their manager for 1 week. Then we
are supposed to automatically reply to any e-mail that person gets that
they do not work here anymore and they should contact ...

This sounds worse to me than ooof's which will only send once. Any
amunition to prevent this would be helpful. Thanks!

Enable host headers so the website doesn't respond to calls made

Subject: RE: something is killing IIS on one of my front-ends

Thanks.

The server is all patched up and latest SP is on.

this morning it took 10 minutes for the server to croak.

IIS log was full of PROPFIND requests. They were weird too, because they
came from the server's own IP address, however the logged on user was a
user that belongs to a customer in Brazil. I was expecting to see the IP
address from Brazil.

Here is a [modified] example:

2003-07-02 11:59:37 [my.server.ip.address] [EMAIL PROTECTED]
W3SVC1 SHFEX02 [my.server.ip.address] 80 PROPFIND /public/ - 500
HTTP/1.1 exchange.hosting.innerhost.com
Exchange-Server-Frontend-Proxy/6.0+Mozilla/4.0+(compatible;+MSIE+5.5;+Wi
ndows+95)


There were A LOT of these in the log. Mixed up with a few records from
the "good" customer logons.

I ended up configuring the Default Web Site to deny connections from the
server's own IP address.  Hopefully this will help.

Does sound like a DOS attack of some sort (had similar problems with
some
standard IIS servers).  If the logs arent too revealing, get your comms
guys
to enable incoming logging on the firewalls / firewall routers for
traffic
destined for your front-end server.  Should be easy for them to do.

As for blocking the traffic they can do that fairly easily as well,
provided
its all from the same / similar places (ours was).  The problem with
trying
to block it at the front end server is that by then the box has already
seen
the traffic and may be too late to stop it.

Also (as always) make sure you are running the correct suite of patches
on
your front-end server.

IIS
stops responding and resets itself.

Earlier this morning, I was just looking at a few things and noticed
that
all of a sudden IIS got 17,000+ connections at a rate of ~50 per second.

I am going to check the logs and try to find out where these connections
came from. Hopefully they are all from one place so that I could block
that
source IP address.

And I am fishing for suggestions as to what else I could do to track
this
down.

Thanks

RE: something is killing IIS on one of my front-ends

[Fyodorov, Andrey]

Thanks.

The server is all patched up and latest SP is on.

this morning it took 10 minutes for the server to croak.

IIS log was full of PROPFIND requests. They were weird too, because they came from the 
server's own IP address, however the logged on user was a user that belongs to a 
customer in Brazil. I was expecting to see the IP address from Brazil.

Here is a [modified] example:

2003-07-02 11:59:37 [my.server.ip.address] [EMAIL PROTECTED] W3SVC1 SHFEX02 
[my.server.ip.address] 80 PROPFIND /public/ - 500 HTTP/1.1 
exchange.hosting.innerhost.com 
Exchange-Server-Frontend-Proxy/6.0+Mozilla/4.0+(compatible;+MSIE+5.5;+Windows+95)


There were A LOT of these in the log. Mixed up with a few records from the "good" 
customer logons.

I ended up configuring the Default Web Site to deny connections from the server's own 
IP address.  Hopefully this will help.

Does sound like a DOS attack of some sort (had similar problems with some
standard IIS servers).  If the logs arent too revealing, get your comms guys
to enable incoming logging on the firewalls / firewall routers for traffic
destined for your front-end server.  Should be easy for them to do.

As for blocking the traffic they can do that fairly easily as well, provided
its all from the same / similar places (ours was).  The problem with trying
to block it at the front end server is that by then the box has already seen
the traffic and may be too late to stop it.

Also (as always) make sure you are running the correct suite of patches on
your front-end server.

Recently, I have had problems with one of my front-end Exchange 2000
servers. It looks like IIS gets bogged down with something. Eventually IIS
stops responding and resets itself.

Earlier this morning, I was just looking at a few things and noticed that
all of a sudden IIS got 17,000+ connections at a rate of ~50 per second.

I am going to check the logs and try to find out where these connections

RE: Clustering... is it worth it?

What client configurations are you thinking of supporting? 

We have a centralized architecture but line speeds are not fast enough to
support online access - a word doc can take over a minute to stream down to
some locations. Thus we have configured Outlook in offline mode, but this
makes the use of public folders very painful since if the public folders are
large and marked as available offline the ost file gets very large and is
more likely to break.

Can't see a good way around this apart from using Notes, which seems to cope
with a centralized architecture and disconnected users much better :( .

Anyone got any good ideas other than Exchange 2003?

(Can't resist - it's a 4-node cluster, with a passive same-scale server as
part of the mix ).

Which is 4,000 per node...  Sounding reasonable to me so far... 

Oh, and if anyone's wondering if it's "real world" or "Microsoft/HP playing"
- yes, I'm seriously considering (and have the budget to back it up) using
it as a deployment model for my environment (no, I don't have 16,000+ users,

But do consider revisiting this with 2003.

With Microsoft running 16,000 users on an 8-node cluster now. Windows2003
and Exchange2003 of course.

Are you sure?  The msExchMailboxSecurityDescriptor property is a valid
security descriptor and is the property that is associated with the
Mailbox Rights tab in ADUC.  These rights are not visible in the store,
but are inherited by the store.

On the other hand, anything changed in Outlook, is only visible there.
